Anyone have any feedback on using a cavalry drive with the HR24? I understand that they work well on the HR20-HR22. I bought a new one to connect my new HR24, but it doesn't see it. Speaking of which... is there an easy way to see if an external drive is connected?

Just to be clear, I am using an HR20-100 with an Seagate Free Agent 750GB. I was running the national release when I downloaded 0281. Upon further inspection, the entire receiver was reset -- recorded programs wiped :mad:, prioritizer emptied, and even my favorites lists deleted. My second...

I installed 0281 last night and it wiped out all of my recordings and my entire prioritizer list.

So, I am just curious... does anyone that is experiencing issues with the HR20's responses (slow to respond or no response) have their HR20 attached to an Ethernet connection? My HR20 behaves poorly (lethargic guide, slow response to remote button commands, hanging for several seconds when...

I realize that I'm a "johnny come lately" to those of you who have been following this stuff for years... but this is pretty exciting stuff! I can't help be get really pumped over seeing that rocket sail into the sky! I can't wait... and it would be great if they broadcast it on The 101 in HD.

Since getting my HR20 in October, the only thing I've missed about my Time Warner Cable DVR (and I do mean the only thing) was that when you reached the end of a program, you HAD to make a choice (delete or keep). I hate that. With the TWC box, I could rewind and rewatch the end if I wanted or...

30-Second Slip (Keyword: 30SLIP) - This is the default option. When activated (using the "->|" button), the viewer is "slipped" foward while showing the content that is being passed (at about FF x4) and the screen shows a progress bar to illustrate the movement. 30-Second Slip takes about 1-2...

Same here... both HR20s are rebooting as I type this.

Same here... still running the 0x1BE from November. Has anyone on the east coast got the upgrade automatically (without any user intervention)?

As far as I recall, TWC's box disable the analog (component and RCA) ports when the digital (HDMI) port is active. You could connect your LCD with component and VHS via RCA.

Our CW is available in HD on D* in Raleigh, NC. It is a Sinclair-owned station (WLFL).

For the record, I have an HR20-100S. It's not in the guide and I'm not able to go there by entering the suggested channel number (I get "channel not available"). I'm so jealous of the folks who are watching it in HD, though. :) Can't wait to see it - it's why I got DirecTV last week!!!

Same here. No go either way.

My installation for DirecTV is Friday!!! As you may have noted above, I'm so excited to kick TWC to the curb! After this post, I'll be over on the DirecTV boards!!! :) Talk to you all later!!!

Just to be clear... I subscribed to TWC's HD service 2.5 years ago. The whole time, I've had an HD DVR and the HD Suite. When I first subscribed to HD, I got the following... Locals ================ WRAL-HD (CBS) WRAZ-HD (FOX) WTVD-HD (ABC) WNCN-HD (NBC) WUNC-HD (PBS) Other...

While it won't tell you how much "record time" you have (that would be too easy, right?), if you are more technically inclined you can see space utilization on an 8300HD running Passport. To do it, go to channel "999" and then scroll down to "DVR AVFS". I am currently using 137.1 GB with 13.4...

Thanks for the tip! Do you have a Tivo?

Hey folks! I'm giving serious looks to the new Tivo HD DVR. I want to get two CableCards, but I'm curious how TWC charges for those. I know that the cards, themselves, are $1.75/mo (in this market). Does anyone know if they'll charge me for an additional digital outlet or anything like...

I don't know if it is related, but in this area the 8300HD enforces HDCP pretty strictly. Do you know if you TV supports HDCP? Here, if the HDCP is present but fails to negotiate, I get a HUGE black screen covering the entire display with a message to switch to component. I've never plugged...

Great... What is "Too Much For TV"? What HD channels did you have before?

Do you know what software you are running? I'm running Passport and can find the information by going to channel 999 and going down to the DVR info pages (I can't remember what they are called off my head). They are near the bottom of my list.

I am going to infer from your post that eSATA is NOT supported currently on the SA8300HD. Wow. Bummer. I was about to add some space to my chronically cramped DVR.

Thanks for the suggestion... though, just to be clear, I don't move movies, just files in excess of 1GB (averaging around 2GB). :-) And, I also use Netflix.

Hey, sorry for the delayed response. So, Clearwire worked very well. It had solid performance and no problems with reliability. If you are noting the verbs in past tense, I had to cancel my Clearwire service. The only real problem with Clearwire was the one that I initially feared --...
